As a fundraising awareness campaign they are having people submit pics of their little critters in a all out-no holds barred on line cuteness pageant. This might prove to be as intense as people who submit pictures of their babies on line for Gap contests and then get LIVIIIIIIID when no one gives a thumbs up on facebook…I’ve seen it…it’s ugly….I meant the contest...not your baby...(welllll....)

Who will be crowned ASPCA Spay Day Anamalista of 2011? I submitted a pic of my own little pageant diva. Ladies and Gentlemen, our next contestant MacGregor Fletcher……

Hi, my name’s MacGregor Fletcher, I'm from the great state of New York, home of the original alley cat. I’m a full time sleeper who loves a loose string and my talent is staring at the back of the sofa for hours on end.

But even though we are progressing, we still have such a long way to go. We are using animals for our entertainment in cruel thoughtless ways.

These are the innocent. The unprotected. Please if we can put a stop to this, let it be today.

One of the worst offenses of animal cruelty, on so many levels, is still perpetuated on a nightly basis, all over the country. It's horrifying and awful, and after years and years people line up to see it. It needs to stop. It’s a single word that send chills down my spine. Cats.
